champagne mojitos + a virtual bridal shower

One thing I've learned recently is that friendship can come from all places-- even the internet. I became friends with Julie two years ago and now I count her as a dear friend-- someone who can listen to my gripes about owning a small business and someone who will always appreciate a photo of my dog.

Julie is getting married this spring and while I can't throw her a bridal shower in my living room, I can throw her one online. And if I was hosting a shower for her, I know I would have to make the lady a mixed drink.

Julie loves mojitos, but I figure because we're at a shower, we should make it just a little fancier-- and add champagne.

the fact that you made a J+J out of mint leaves is the cutest frekkin thing ever. So happy you could "come" to the party ;) now let's make this happen in real life ok?! And PS-this drink? I would drink this. I am a picky drinker (is that a thing?) and this sounds heavenly. I think I'm actually going to make these for my bridal party get together in a few weeks with my ladies. LOVE THIS!!!

Erika!!!! Man I've been going through and commenting and this one made me cry! The mojito. The "J+J." It's just so crazy how real friendships can start online and be carried on for years without getting to see each other much. I'm so thankful to have you in my life! xo JA

Ooooh. These look delicious! I'll have to definitely try these out. I even have some champagne in the fridge as it were. :) I'm looking forward to summer already, when I can plant some more mint and make some more mojitos. Anyway, you guys are awesome for throwing Julie an online bridal shower! What a fantastic surprise.

Really loved your champagne mojitos drink. Have to use this idea in my sister’s bridal shower at local wedding venues Los Angeles. Will serve this drink to the guests in the party. Hope everyone will enjoy it like me.
